Due to the use of additives and concrete strength, our lintels are suitable for use below ground to bridge service entries in buildings. Prestressed concrete lintels ensure optimum performance and have a high span to depth ratio which results in lighter units. They are typically used in housing applications or in applications where a high load carrying capacity is not required.

Our Economy range lintels are manufactured in our site based in Barnsley using the extrusion manufacturing method. The lintels are fully reversible and prestressed, making them some of the strongest lintels available on the market. They come with 30 minutes fire rating as standard, are extremely cost effective, provide high performance and are typically used in plastered or rendered situations. Each lintel is marked at the ‘top’ to ensure correct orientation during installation.

Our Economy range lintels are available in six different section sizes and in widths of 100mm, 140mmand 215mm with lengths ranging from 450mm to 3000mm dependent upon section size.  Naylor Economy range lintels have an extruded concrete finish ideally suited to plastered or rendered applications.  Prestressed lintels can be cut to length on site without adversely affecting the lintels performance and may be used in building foundations to support service entries.
